FANNERS AIR ACTUATED SHEET FANNERS

Product catalog summary
Overview: This document provides technical specifications and features of air actuated and air-knife sheet fanners produced by Industrial Magnetics Inc. These devices are designed to separate steel sheets in industrial settings, enhancing safety and efficiency.
Air Actuated Sheet Fanners:
  • Utilize an air cylinder system to position the magnet for easy removal from the stack.
  • Handle steel sheets of various sizes, creating a gap of 3/4” to 1-1/2” for separation.
  • Features include cost reduction, safety enhancement, prevention of double blanking, and mid-stack changeover capability.
  • Specifications include various part numbers with dimensions and weights, requiring 60-100 PSI clean dry air and a 3-way, 2-position valve.
Air Spring Permanent Magnetic Fanner:
  • Uses an air spring system to control the magnet's position, reducing accidental attraction during transport.
  • Specifications require 80-100 PSI clean dry air and a control valve not supplied by IMI.
Air-Knife Sheet Fanners:
  • Designed for both ferrous and non-ferrous metals, using air knives to separate non-ferrous sheets.
  • Features include cost reduction, safety enhancement, and prevention of sheet damage.
  • Specifications detail part numbers, dimensions, weights, and flow per nozzle at various pressures.
Key Features and Options:
  • Powerful Rare Earth magnetic circuit with On/Off capability.
  • Fail-safe mode for safety during air pressure loss.
  • Durable stainless steel construction and customizable options for mounting and circuits.

FANNERS AIR ACTUATED SHEET FANNERS-1

AIR ACTUATED SHEET FANNERS Air Actuated ON/OFF Operation Air Actuated Sheet Fanners have an air cylinder system that positions the magnet against or away from the face of the fanner for easy and safe removal of the fanner from the stack. Permanent Magnetic Fanners handle steel sheets of almost any length, width or shape. The sheets near the top of the stack separate instantly from a 3/4” to 1-1/2” gap, depending on sheet (4) 3/8"-16 x 1/2" deep thickness and size. mounting holes Air Actuated Sheet Fanners: » » » » » » » Reduce costs & increase safety for destacking steel sheet stock A powerful, Rare Earth magnetic field automatically separates sheets As the top sheet is removed, the next sheet instantly fans up Prevents prying apart sticky, oily, pre-finished or polished sheets Eliminates die-damaging double blanking in automated operations ON/OFF of an electromagnet with the benefit of a permanent magnet Allows for mid stack change over Air Spring Permanent Magnetic Fanner: Air Cylinder Permanent Magnetic Fanner: Part Number Overall Height » 3/8 NPT Ports » 80 - 100 psi - clean dry air required » Requires control valve for operation (not supplied by IMI) 1.44 3/8-16 TAPPED MOUNTING HOLES .5" DEEP TYP. 4 PLACES FEATURES: Powerful, Rare Earth, magnetic circuit On/Off capability helps prevent injury when introducing new materials to the fanner “Fail-Safe” mode automatically returns the magnet to the “Off” position with loss of air pressure Durable stainless steel welded cover construction Fans from 30 gauge sheets to 3/16” plate On/Off Indicator Air Spring Fanners have an air spring system that pushes the magnet inside toward the face of the fanner when air pressure is present. When the air pressure is turned off or disconnected the air spring will deflate and the magnet will move away from the face of the fanner creating air gap that in essence turns the magnet off. This removes the risk of having metal accidently attracted to the fanner during transportation or stack changeovers.

FANNERS AIR ACTUATED SHEET FANNERS-2

INDUSTRIAL MAGNETICS. FANNERS AIR-KNIFE FANNERS Sheet Fanners For Ferrous And Non-Ferrous Metals Permanent Magnet Sheet Fanners with Air Knives allow for ferrous and non-ferrous sheets to be separated in stacking/destacking applications. While the magnet force will work with all ferrous metals, the air knives separate all non-ferrous metal by pushing air in between the sheets causing them to rise up from one another. Permanent Magnetic Fanners handle steel sheets of almost any length, width or shape. The sheets near the top of the stack separate instantly. Air Knife Sheet Fanners:: Ut arum res...
